This is an interesting topic for us to cover to say the least, though at the same time it’s a very common question we see asked online and charges we have helped defend in courts throughout Los Angeles County (Downtown, San Fernando, Van Nuys, etc.) over the past 20+ years.

Our team of Van Nuys criminal defense attorneys has handled thousands of assault cases over the years throughout Los Angeles County ranging from simple assault charges to aggravated assault, assault with a deadly weapon and other serious felonies. Based on our experience, this blog briefly touches on what we’ve seen over the past 20+ years and what we anticipate in the future.

All criminal cases are complex in their own ways and when dealing with serious felonies like murder and sex crimes it’s imperative to understand the charges you’re facing as well as the potential defenses and mitigating factors – and that requires you retaining an experienced defense attorney that not only specializes in the particular charges but also in the courthouse where the case is taking place.
